A Great Work

 



About the Book 
A Great Work is a story of faith, hope, and perseverance. It encourages all of us whose dreams and hopes seem to be gone to be of good cheer and keep believing that all things are working together for our good. As I look back at my life, I am reminded that there is no strength, perseverance, or hope without divine intervention, and therefore, it is important to know that faith will, at some point, be the only key that will unlock all the possibilities we need to finish a great work, see miracles, and renew our strength to keep moving forward. For those who are waiting on a miracle, this story will inspire you to rest in the depth of God’s promises to keep believing that your story does not have to end the same way it started, regardless of your current circumstances and the challenges you face. For the humble and weary, there is hope. For all the dreamers like me, God is able to do more than you can imagine, so believe in your vision, be at peace with yourself, and keep dreaming. Finally, for those who have lost everything, I want to remind you that the eleventh hour of the night is the darkest time of the day and yet it is the turning point for a new day. God knows, God sees, and God hears you, so cheer up, keep fighting the good work, and be confident that He who has begun a great work in you is faithful to finish it,

Free Kindle Book - The top 100 Intimate Items for Lovers

  




The Top 100 Intimate Items for Lovers:

Presented by Sexy Challenges

Sex is amazing, Sex is Fun, Sexy is out of this world

However, it can always get better!

Sexy Challenges knows that there is not limit to the sexual energy you can experience. However, a good majority of people out there do not have any clue what products are out there to help improve their sexual experiences. That is why I put together a crack team of experts to help find the best products for your sexual satisfaction.  

Now-a-days there are millions of sexual products out there to choose from. Which means there is a lot to consider when making a selection to put more pleasure in your sex life. Not only are their choices but there are health issues to sexual items, and now many times come with warranties and options, that a person can get overwhelmed in a hurry. Sex should not be stressful nor should picking out items to assist you in your sexual escapades. 

That is why this book was created. Items to enhance your sexual experience are investments. You put out money for said items and hope they will deliver massive returns on your investments. However throwing money blindly in a sex toy store or online isn’t the best investment policy. You have to do the research. With that being said most people don’t have the time or the balls to really dive into researching sexual items. Good thing my team here at Sexy Challenges does.  

We want to take as much of the guess work out of the process as possible. This book was designed to share our top picks with you so that instead of having millions of items to choose from you will have 100 or a few more of the best of the best. High quality, best price, longest lasting items to keep your libido active and excited. Together we will help you build a arsenal of sexual items to keep things new and evolving in your bedroom, and outside of it also.
  
We are not just talking about sex toys such as vibrators. There is an entire world out there of amazing products that when used in the correct fashion will help turn you on and up to a new level of sexual excitement. The list is so long believe me it was a daunting task narrowing this book down to 100 items. Sure there will be sex toys in the list but there will also be games, beverages, items to cleaning up, storage, and a lot more areas that you might not have through about. That is why I brought in the experts.  

The goal here is to update this book twice a year to help keep it fresh and up to date on all the advancements in the sexuality felid. Part of our process is listening to our readers, so if you have a suggestion for a product to be in our next edition by all means sent the information to me. You will be able to find my contact information at the end of this book. Also if you have any question you can send them to me and if I don’t know the answer I will do my best to find it from our team or a different source. 
 
My suggestion for using this book is as follows. Go through the book all the way before you decide on anything to add to your play time. After you have finished mark down a few items you would like to try and have your partner do the same. If you are single and not dating you can skip that last step. Now compare lists and if any items are the same on both lists don’t hesitate pick those up right away. Next set a plan on what Item or items you want to try next and start a budget for your sexual pleasure items. Understand that everything in these pages might not be for you and the is okay we all are different and unique so embrace that fact. So if something doesn’t appeal to you don’t just pick it up cause it is in the book! Trust your feelings use the sexual force.  

Making your list out of the items in the pages and sharing it with your lover is a great way to help during gift giving times, such as the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, as well as weddings and bridal showers, and bachelor parties.

Not In All My...

 


Not In All My...


For Mark Collins, dark humor walks hand-in-hand with the camaraderie he and his teammates share. Thrust into a bureaucratic conundrum, Mark must circumvent a muddled readiness exercise while maintaining balance with his family.

Being a first responder has its positives and negatives. It seems like Mark Collins experiences more of the negatives than most.

Family relations? It’s hard to explain to a nine-year-old daughter why you can’t make it to her soccer game tomorrow. Or Thanksgiving Day dinner for the fourth consecutive year.

Companionship? The trust held in his teammates is like no other. Those outside his career field never truly understand. And contending with inept leadership in the workplace can test the bonds of a team.

Alone time? It happens. Not often, but it happens. With limited time around those you love, pushing yourself to find time for the things you want for yourself is often taxing.

As Mark makes his way through a life of camaraderie and work, he finds himself questioning his sanity many times over. However, he does find a small beacon of light on his side. His wife, daughter, and teammates. With these priceless pieces of support, he pushes on with the headache and heartache found all too common in the first responder world. And with a new challenge on the horizon closing in fast on him and his squad, Mark will need every last ray of that distant glimmer to come out unscathed.

Shackles Released

 


Shackles Released:

A CPA’s Journey From Prestige To Prison


From prestige to a draconian prison sentence, this is an intriguing true-life saga of one woman's inspirational rise from the cotton fields in the backcountry region of Moro, Arkansas to executive boardrooms as a decorated CPA in Corporate America, and on to the heights of entrepreneurial success as the owner of an extremely large tax office.

But as soon as she obtained the exceptional American dream, she is confronted with the brutal reality of the fragility of her freedom as a black woman in America daring to reach too high. Her story takes a sudden and dark turn when one IRS federal agent fixed his gaze on her success with a relentless determination to orchestrate her demise.

Her story takes a real candid look at the painfully disturbing reality of our broken criminal justice system and its mass-incarceration machine that feeds on its own citizens, with a particularly insatiable appetite for those of African American descent.

Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene

   


Un-Hinged:

What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene


In Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, “It’s You, It’s Not Me” in the NYC Dating Scene, Mariann Yip recounts her dating experiences from over a span of two years in New York City.

Written with the familiarity of Mariann telling her close girlfriends about her dates for the first time, each chapter presents a different suitor and dives into the lessons she learned. With each of the twelve men she discusses, she reveals the ups and downs of online dating, the realities of dating in a city like New York, and the personal development she experienced in her late twenties.

When it comes to dating, love exists and will come and go. It’s important to remember that finding love is a journey and takes patience and time. Your unique dating experience is valid, and the way your relationship ends does not define your worth or what you deserve. And, most importantly, you should never settle, because oftentimes, honey, it’s them―it’s not you.

Available Now: Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene 

March 1, 2022, New York City: Mariann Yip is delighted to announce the pre-order of her first book, Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene. Learn how crazy dating experiences led to self-discovery, self-development, and self-love for this native New Yorker. Her close girlfriends encouraged her to write the book during the pandemic because her dating experiences were unique, unpredictable, and entertaining. Her stories offer a fresh lens to the reality of dating in a busy and big city like New York and is a modern take on “Sex and the City.” 

"While I was dating all of these men, I was also dating myself in the process." 
— Mariann Yip, from Un-Hinged 

Yip navigated her mid to late 20s at the heart of it all, in the city that never sleeps. Dating in New York City offers a pool of endless options. Coming across men with different backgrounds and personalities made it an adventure and a chance for self-exploration. 

"Had I not put myself out there and had not said yes to all these men, I wouldn't have had the crazy experiences I did. And to be honest, looking back, they actually make me smile because I can now pinpoint who Mariann was when she was dating as a single woman in NYC." — Mariann Yip 

Yip recalls her experiences in a raw and authentic way, as if she was telling her story for the first time to her girlfriends. Every chapter dives into the lessons she’s learned from each suitor. Un-Hinged also touches on the role of therapy in her life. Yip applied the lessons learned from her therapy sessions to her relationships and dates. Other major themes of the book include the importance in healing past wounds, recognizing patterns, and the power of boundaries, self-awareness and self-love. 

Letting Go of Control to Let Love In 

It can be hard to find love when you are comparing your timeline to others. Letting go of control and expectations is a liberating way to see the bigger picture of life and love. Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene is meant to inspire anyone looking for genuine love. 

Aside from giving a sneak peek into the real dating scene in NYC, the book is relatable to all women and highlights the struggles of matching with a stranger on a dating app, the analysis of men with their best friends, the thought processing before going on a date, etc. Un-Hinged is a reminder for those looking to find their person that they are more than their relationship status and their worth is not defined by an online dating profile. 

“When all else fails, you can resort to the saying, “It’s you, it’s not me,” and just keep trucking along, because I’m here with you. Your girl’s got you.” 

— Mariann Yip 

Un-Hinged: What I Learned from Saying, "It's You, It's Not Me" in the NYC Dating Scene is available for now at https://www.un-hinged.com. It is also available at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and Mascot Books.
